10 Reviews on “White Elephant Thai Cuisine”
Decided to try White Elephant Thai Cuisine for my birthday dinner the other night after reading all of the great reviews. It did not disappoint! The food came out quickly after we ordered and everything was delicious! The yellow curry, coconut rice, and pad Thai were my favourites. The green curry, red curry, and fried rice were also really yummy. The portion sizes were huge! All 6 of our party left incredibly full, but we still had lots of left overs. Dont let the location fool you, this place is an absolute gem!
I cannot recommend this place enough! So delicious and spicy. The servings are huge and the atmosphere is quaint. I have never recieved bad or even mediocre service the multiple times I have eaten here. I have had both red and green curry, the pad Thai, Satay skewers, spring rolls, and the basil stir fry with shrimp and everything is fantastic. Don’t be scared away by the restaurant being in a hotel that is… Rundown.
Based on the big portion of the food and prices, I could have given more than 4.5. Its a cozy place with quite delicious food. A bit noisy but thats not sth I mind. Spicy noodle was a little bit too sweet. Tom yum soup would be better if they served when its piping hot. Iced tea was good but a bit too sweet and you can choose to put less sugar in it as its inside of the teabag already. These are the small suggestions only. We really enjoyed food there! And will go back for sure!
Absolutely fantastic food! Large portions. You want to get here early as there was a line out the door and a small seating area. It’s located in a hotel with a very discreet side door entrance.
After hearing much about this place, and reading mixed reviews, I finally came for dinner. If you’re looking for a romantic restaurant or a place with a nice ambience, this is not the restaurant for you. If you’re looking for great food with tons of flavor and quick service, this is the place! The massive portions can be best described as family style size, where one dish can feed 3 to 4 people. The menu is smaller and more limited than other Thai restaurants I have been to, but this is how they are able to serve the food relatively quickly. We ordered the chicken panang curry, chicken matsaman curry, coconut rice and beef pad se-ew. Everything was delicious, flavorful and there were plenty of leftovers to take home. We wanted to order the green curry however they were already out of it by the time we got there. Will come again, but most likely for take out…didn’t care for all the flies flying around the tables while eating our dinner.
The food is awesome here. The shrimp dish is my favourite and the red curry dish. Pair it with coconut rice. The food tastes very fresh. You either have to arrive early or get take out. The line up get ridiculous and you can not make a reso. Last time i was there is took almost 2 hours before we ate and they ran out of the spring rolls we ordered but didnt tell us until our main food came.
Nothing but delicious food here… I’ve been to Thailand 5 or 6 times in the past 2 years and I’m not even sure I can find food THIS good there! Let me just real-iterate… Thailand has amazing food all over it, I can’t deny that…. that’s hard to find, is a place that is THIS GOOD!!! I will be back, again and again!
